The newest version of iTunes begins downloading but will not finish and install.

I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro, and the App Store lists iTunes 12.1 as an update to be downloaded and installed.  I have tried multiple times but it will not install and continues to show up as an update.  Is anyone else having this problem?  If not, what do you suggest I do to solve the problem.  All the other updated downloaded and installed with no problem.

That is not possible, as iTunes 12.1 has not been released yet.
The current version of iTunes is 12.0.1.

  • My iPhone 4S will not sync to iTunes. I've download the newest version of iTunes several times but when plugging my phone in it says "The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.6.3 or later."

    If you're using Windows try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall the latest version of iTunes.  You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful.  Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.

    To find the version of Mac OS X on your computer, all you have to do is click the Apple logo and then About this Mac. For more info, take a look at this doc -> Finding your OS X version and build information

    You should lose nothing.
    However, this does not change the fact that you should ALWAYS have a backup copy of everything in your computer, including itunes.
    You should ALWAYS make sure that your backup copy of your computer is up to date before any update, restore, etc.

    That one is often a compatibility mode problem. Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

  • HT201272 A lot of my songs, once put on the iCloud, will not download to my iPod.  They are on my iTunes, already downloaded, but will not appear in my library on my iPod.  Before I started using iCloud, all music in my iTunes library was on my iPod.

    A lot of my songs, once put on the iCloud, will not download to my iPod.  They are in my iTunes library, already downloaded, but will not appear in my library on my iPod.  There is no common thread for the origin of the songs--many were ripped from CD's, others purchased in the iTunes store.  Before I started using iCloud, all music in my iTunes library was on my iPod without any issues.

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

  • When i try to open dmg file for newest version of itunes, my mac pro does not open to install and freezes my main desktop toolbar so i can't select the apple to shut down, it also enables me to open any other programs?HELP PLEASE

    i've been forced by my comp to shut down several times by holding the power button because of the inability to select the apple and shut down correctly..idk if i got a rare mac virus or bug.. and some programs simply won't open when clicked on.. i don't know how this is possible after years of great performance..

    Where did you get this "dmg file"? To install the newest version of any Apple software, including iTunes, all you have to do is use Software Update from the Apple menu. This doesn't download any dmg, it automatically installs the software for you.
    Maybe try repairing your permissions from Disk Utility (in your Utilities folder).
    Also - What version of OS X do you have? Please update your forum profile so we can help you better.

  • HT1926 I downloaded the latest version of iTunes; however, it now will not launch, citing Windows error 127, any suggestions?

    I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, now it will not launch.  I get a Windows Error 127 message.  Any suggestions?

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • HELP - FRUSTRATED - iTunes 7 Downloaded but will not install

    Hi....I have downloaded iTunes. But when I then run the iTunesSetup.exe to install it, I keep getting the exact same message:
    "The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime"
    That's it. No error number or further explanation. I have deleted/erased all other versions of QuickTime. I have downloaded, run and installed the QuickTime 7 standalone installer from my hard drive and yet I still keep getting the same message I posted above.
    This is going on 3 hours now, and I'm not happy.

    let's try getting an itunes 7 installer log to the Apple Engineers for a look.
    1. Open a command prompt window. (Start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return.)
    2. Drag and drop iTunesSetup.exe onto the window so that the full pathname of the file is at the command line prompt.
    3. Type in a space, then the following line:
    /l*v C:\log.txt
    4. Hit return.
    5. The installer will create a log file:
    C:\log.txt
    Find that file and send it as an attachment to this email address.
    in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
    - A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
    - The username you are using in the thread
    - The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
    - the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
    - A concise description of the issue you are seeing
    - The exact text of the error message you are seeing

    3. Open control panel / add remove programs. Find the bonjour app and click on it.
    4. Note the corrupted version of bonjour 2.0.0.34 by clicking on the support link.
